“As the sole administrator of my late mother’s estate, I was extremely grateful to be have been referred to BNR partners who professionally and efficiently assisted me in addressing a number of complex estate taxation issues, including international assets, undeclared income and ultimately, the management of a voluntary disclosure with the ATO.
